I have come up with this idea, but would like to hear some comments about its feasibility/implementation. I am thinking about putting a switch (slide) on in the hole where the vox plug is, and then routing wires to the resistor pad which needs to be toggled on/off to enable/disable 460rx and 440tx respectively. I am thinking that all I need to do is turn the radio off, flip the switch, and voila, I would have a poor-man's Icom!! has anyone ever tried this? any comments would be greatly appreciated -- +--------------------------------------+ | Brent Mosbrook KC6MWK | | mosbrook@beach.csulb.edu | +--------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ Date: 18 Apr 91 05:24:48 GMT From: news-mail-gateway@ucsd.edu Subject: No-Code Testing - Who is to adm. To: info-hams@ucsd.edu I'm ready to test for the no-code tech but all the VE's I have contacted tell me that they aren't alloud to test the new no-code prospects. I have asked at least 15 different VE's in 75 mile radious of where I live. I'm confused.....Who is aloud to test the new no-code prospects. regular VE's or some special test givers. It makes me feel like that someone holding a no-code License is like someone having LEPROSY. Believe me folks. I've tried too long and too hard to stop now. If somebody can answer this question let me know I've already filled out the envelope and I'm ready to send out the paper work. Thanks Gang.
